Designing better products with AI and sustainability

technologyreview.com Mit Technology Review Insights 2025-11-06 12:13:28

On a mission to reduce the environmental impact of manufacturing components, Siemens turned its attention to the design of a robot gripper. Making up just 2% of the robot, the impact of this hand-like device may seem inconsequential. But, reducing its weight by 90% and the number of constituent parts by 84% can save up to 3 tons of carbon dioxide emissions per robot per year. Consider the impact of equivalent savings across every gripper on the more than 4 million industrial robots worldwide—tha

Horrifying AI Crowds Apparently Used in Will Smith Concert Video

Commenters are calling out Will Smith for using AI in a concert video. The video, posted to YouTube on Aug. 12, features the actor and rapper performing on stage with a montage of his audiences. The crowd looks real in some shots, but in others it appears to be AI generated, given the prevalence of blurry faces, extra fingers and akimbo limbs. One YouTube commenter responded: "I like to pause this video and see your crowd close up too. Lots of extra digits in this crowd." Another said: "This i
